A Case of Lacrimal Sac Sarcoma
Malignant tumors arising from the lacrimal sac are rare and present with diverse clinical symptoms. Many primary malignant tumors of the lacrimal sac exhibit lacrimation and are easily misdiagnosed as chronic dacryocystitis, delaying diagnosis and treatment. In this report, we describe a case of a sarcoma that was thought to have originated in the lacrimal sac.
